In a similar way to how they build pylons for ski lifts I suspect.🫣

Do they build the pylons first, then put the mountain in afterwards?

How did they build Macchu Pichu and similar places so perfect we can't replica with stone from miles away in massive blocks and get them thousands of feet up the mountain?

Aliens clearly.

Not necessarily, technologies we have no idea of yet and dating wrong perhaps. Even a civilisation we have no idea of in distant past. We are only giving educated guesses currently but we can poke it with a stick and no clue how it was achieved.

And the guesses keep changing

mostly due to better ideas and new evidence
as with how the stones got to Stonehenge

but sometimes just because people start to favour a different idea

We will never find out for real
